Domestic Violence is Being Remembered in October.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS DEADLY!
Body: OCTOBER IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH!

But, domestic violence occurs every day. Moreover, many victims of domestic violence do NOT survive! Domestic violence does not discriminate...it kills women, men, teenagers, children, and babies (both born and unborn). Domestic violence kills people of all ages, religions, races, ethnicities, and cultures. It, also, kills people without regard to their socioeconomic status and/or profession. Likewise, men and women (including teenagers) whom have murdered the aforementioned are of every race, religion, ethnicity, culture, socioeconomic status and/or profession, respectively.


I would like to know if you are doing something in October to help raise awareness of domestic violence. If you have not considered doing something, will you? It could be something as simple as posting bulletins with news stories from your community, reposting bulletins about domestic violence, or organizing a candlelight vigil for a victim from your community. If you are hosting or attending an event in October, please send me the event information and I will circulate the information via bulletins! I will compile a list of events, no matter how large or small the event might be, and send it out often.


Photographs and information about each victim, below, were submitted by the victims' family members, close friends, and/or law enforcement officers.



The descriptions of what happened to each of the victims are graphic. This is intentional, because sometimes...seeing is believing!
